Legislative Update on FLSA Overtime Regulations

Posted on 11.23.16

On Tuesday, November 22, 2016, a Texas judge issued a preliminary injunction that effectively halts/delays the implementation of the Department of Labor (DOL) regulation that would change the way that employers have to start paying overtime to salaried workers.
